An incredible mummy-filled tomb belonging to a royal goldsmith who lived more than 3,500 years ago has been uncovered in Egypt’s famed Valley of the Kings. The tomb is located on the west bank of the river Nile in a cemetery for noblemen and prominent officials in the southern city of Luxor. The Ministry of Antiquities has identified the goldsmith as a man named Amenemhat who belonged to the 18th dynasty of Egypt, around 1400 years BC. His wife Amenhotep was also laid to rest in the tomb along with their son.(Photo/Agencies)
